Circus Acrobatics is a floor based activity that can combine gymnastic elements of handstands, tumbling, cartwheels and flexibility as a base to develop more complex patterns of movements and playful discovery in moving and challenging your body. It can be practised individually or as a partner or group combinations.
Acrobatics can be practiced at all levels. It is a progressive discipline with many beginner skills to master before advancing to more difficult moves.

The circus factory is such a fantastic place with amazing tutors. There is never any pressure to go higher or do anything I'm uncomfortable with but I still always find myself pushing my boundaries from the support and enthusiasm of Brenda and the students. Couldn't ask for a better environment to see what I'm capable of or better people to share a passion with.
“Finding circus was such a life changing thing for me, in it I found not just a physical outlet, something that had been lacking in my adult life but also a creative outlet, a place to be inspired and explore my crazy ideas”
“Brilliant venue. great for learning circus skills with lovely teachers”
The Circus factory is like a big playground where creative people play and work with each other and learn from one another. Exploring new movements is one of the most beautiful ways to entertain your inner child.
The equipment in CF is always improved/ updated and above all when it comes to aerial rigging/equipment it's regulated & safe. Knowing you can train on apparatus that is rigged well and checked regularly means a lot”
